I wonder whether this is a legacy of its having been developed at LiveJournal -- which uses UTF-8 for entries etc. but treats it all as bytes in Perl (I've even seen bits of code that explicitly strip the UTF-8 flag, I think). So things such as 'รถ' would be not just two bytes but also two (Perl) characters inside LiveJournal's innards. Cheers, Philip -- Philip Newton <philip.new...@gmail.com>
